Gone for a burton

Posted by Burton wonderer on February 03, 2005

Just been looking on this site for the origion of "gone for a Burton!" My other half thinks that it has something to do with an old racing driver who crashed and killed himself! Right or wrong? We say this when someone trips or tumbles, Ive noticed that some of the answers on this refeer to death!
